About

CDAC 2026

Features
Read full description

CDAC 2026 is the official companion app for the Crescent Dermatology Association Annual Conference, September 11–13 2026 at The Ritz-Carlton, Tysons Corner. THE FULL PROGRAMME All three days, from Friday's welcome reception through Saturday's CME sessions to Sunday's closing. Filter by track, see what is running concurrently, and open any session for its room, speakers, description and CME eligibility. YOUR OWN AGENDA Star the sessions you want and the app builds your personal schedule. It warns you when two of your picks overlap, so you find out at breakfast rather than at the door. FACULTY The full faculty list with credentials, roles and biographies. Jump from a session to the speaker and back. THE VENUE A floorplan of the conference level with every room named, so you know where you are going. Plus the essentials people actually ask about: which floor, the dress code for each evening, parking, and hotel check-in times. BUILT FOR A HOTEL BALLROOM Conference wifi fails. This app does not. The whole programme, the faculty and the maps are stored on your device and open instantly with no signal at all. When a room changes, the update reaches your phone within about a minute of the organisers making it. CDAC 2026 is presented by the Crescent Dermatology Association. The conference offers AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™, accredited by Amedco LLC.
